ZIYING CHU
I was dedicated to climate conservation for more than 10 years, experienced on climate data cleaning, wrangling, analysis, prediction and visualization, and accumlated some experiences on project management and leadership.
Currently I am searching for a data analyst position that allows me to help people explore and understand their data.

I have worked in a variety of roles, most of which are relevant to climate data analysis and its application. I love the part of data analysis, which has the magic to change data from vexing chaotic to visual beauty. As a continuous learner, a re-starter with years of gap as a stay-at-home mom, I am multithreading programmed now and expecting to be a better self everyday.
